Amami to star as psychiatrist in TBS drama

Tokyograph News · 02-02-2008, 09:54 PM

Actress Yuki Amami will take on her first doctor role when she stars in a TBS drama series next season. The show, which is currently untitled, will feature Amami as a 39-year-old, unmarried psychiatrist.

The central focus of the series seems to be the "arafo" generation (an abbreviation of "around forty"). 40 is now considered a turning point in women's lives, especially with regard to marriage, childbirth, and work. The show will depict the joys and sufferings of these women in a comical way.

The network plans to start filming early next month. Katsuaki Setoguchi is producing, and the cast includes Naohito Fujiki, Nene Otsuka, and Michitaka Tsutsui. The drama will air on Fridays at 10:00pm, starting in April.
